The verification platform CSCS Smart Check has recorded its 60 millionth scan – reflecting its growing use by employers and contractors to support workforce verification and Building Safety Act compliance.
CSCS Smart Check is the only platform to verify all 2.3 million cards displaying the CSCS logo, providing a quick, easy and secure way of ensuring everyone has the correct card, training and qualifications for the job they do. Developed by the CSCS Alliance, the platform’s API is built into the site access and induction systems used by construction’s largest contractors and housebuilders.
Sean Kearns, CSCS Group Chief Executive, said: ‘Reaching 60 million reads is a significant milestone and reflects the commitment across the sector to strengthen assurance around skills, training and qualifications. CSCS Smart Check as the industry’s border control technology provides real-time verification of CSCS Alliance cards as well as compliance and operational support – reducing admin, boosting efficiency, and strengthening confidence in workforce checks. In addition, it’s providing valuable real-time insights on skills and occupational trends for both contractors and government.’
CSCS is continuing to enhance reporting, with the addition of reason codes, such as pre-induction, induction and site access, as well as site IDs for extra granularity. This is designed so industry can better distinguish how and where checks are being made and access clearer, more actionable insight.
